About Tennesseans for Student Success

Tennesseans for Student Success is a non-profit, statewide organization committed to improving student achievement in Tennessee. The quality of public education in on the rise in the Volunteer State and though we’re incredibly proud of all the work done in our classrooms to make Tennessee the fastest improving state in the nation in education, we can’t let up now. Because we believe every student in Tennessee should have an equal opportunity for success, we work day-in and day-out for: rigorous academic standards, an assessment aligned to those standards, accountability for everyone involved in the classroom, and more choices in public education.

In 2016, we launched an aggressive air, ground, and data strategy to support the people and policies that support student success. In the months that followed, we cheered along the Tennessee General Assembly as they made student success a priority. Through traditional outreach, grassroots activity, and access to information like the Tennessee SuccessCard, we look forward to continuing the work to make certain every student – whether in our classrooms today or in the workforce tomorrow – has an opportunity to succeed.
